House of Cosbys
5 Episode s . The first Channel 101 series ever to go three consecutive months at #1, House of Cosbys was one of those rare 101 breakouts that went on to satisfy the world. In the show, the real Bill Cosby never came along and destroyed his own clones, but in real life, creator Justin Roiland and channel101.com site administrator Dan Harmon received "cease and desist" orders from Cosby's attorney in June 2005. The legal questions ground HOC's intensive animation process to a halt and House of Cosbys became Channel 101's first show to be killed not by the audience or by its own creator, but by lawyers. An unofficial fifth episode was created for the live screening by Romano and Falconer but is not served by channel101.com for genuine legal concerns. However, due to outcry and outrage, Channel 101 will continue to carry the first four episodes for your enjoyment.

Rick and Morty
71 Episode s . Rick is a mentally-unbalanced but scientifically gifted old man who has recently reconnected with his family. He spends most of his time involving his young grandson Morty in dangerous, outlandish adventures throughout space and alternate universes. Compounded with Morty's already unstable family life, these events cause Morty much distress at home and school.

The Paloni Family Comedy Show!
1 Episode. This was a pitch presentation that I made on spec in order to convince FOX that “The Paloni Family” would be the ideal late night show for their saturday night block. It was 2009, and they had just cancelled Mad TV and there was a perfect little slice of heaven that I was hoping to turn into my playground. I brought this in, and was able to sell them on it. We started moving forward with this as late night for a few weeks, when suddenly, BOOM. The president of FOX (Kevin Reilly) shifted gears on the animated idea for that Saturday night slot. He still loved this project, and decided that it was strong enough/ interesting enough to be developed for prime time. So that’s what we did. And the original idea began to buckle once subjected to the scrutiny of the prime time development process. The Paloni “packaging” was supposed to be a really simple narrative that took up at most 25% of the total episode. Instead we ended up writing a pilot script that was about 9...

Reporters
5 Episode s . When asked to say a few words about Reporters, Justin Roiland replied, "It's a modern tale and struggle of... uhm... I dunno. A fantastic epic following the struggles of two well-meaning newspaper reporters and their out-of-the-ordinary boss." He then left the room and returned moments later to add: "A.K.A. a slapdash turd of a Channel 101 show." This insane attempt from Roiland, Vatche Panos, and Kelsy Abbott charmed audiences just enough in January of 2007 to fill the Prime Time void left by the Phone Sexxers self-cancellation. Even later, Justin returned to add that "Reporters is the only Channel 101 show that has AIDS. You should put that."

It's Twissleton
1 Episode. The creators of "Friends and Lovers" return, this time coupling their trademark absurdity with a coherent story and likeable characters. Not to mention the amount of work that has to go into a Channel 101 animated show. This one could have been a real juggernaut, but my feeling is that it suffered from the sometimes unpredictable effects of maximum audio volume in Cinespace's theatre. Some of the dialogue was hard to catch at the screening- which is not the case at all on your computer, so enjoy.

The Most Extraordinary Space Investigations
6 Episode s . A marijuana induced experiment that generated more data than ever expected, MESI was a show that taught us all a lot of lessons, none of which may ever be agreed upon. Rejected by the prime time panel, it was the only show to ever enter the screening via the short-lived "wildcard" system, then went on to garner more votes by acquiring the beloved Sarah Silverman and heroically committing to its anti-production value. After entertaining many, irritating many and confusing many more, MESI was put to an appropriate death in the bloody Halloween screening of 2005.

Relative insanity
3 Episode s . These are three shorts I made for a FOX pilot I sold with the legendary/ wonderful Jack Black back in 2007. These shorts were produced thanks to the amazing and lovely Jennifer Howell who stepped into office at 20th Century Fox as the head of animation around the same time I was writing the pilot script for this show. They originally passed on my insane pilot script, and then Jen pleaded with the big wigs to find some money for me to produce a pilot presentation. Here it is. For the first time ever. Never before seen. Fresh for your eyes. I had a lot of help on this. Some blood, sweat, and a few tears were shed here. Not literally though. No one cried. Myke Chillian, Dan O’Conner, and Collin Flemming were the lead character animators and boy oh boy did they do a TON of work let me tell you. There were also other fine folks who worked on background and color and I am in the ongoing process of collecting everyone’s information for you all to see. stay tuned. OH...

Toro and Moro
1 Episode. This was my entry to a very old (2004) Channel101 pilot for FX. IT SUCKS! DON’T WATCH IT! Out of all the things I’ve ever made, THIS is the one that I am the most ashamed of. I hesitated to even post it on this website, but that felt like the wrong thing to do. Let me start with the things that I love about this. I love Patton Oswalt as the father. I wrote the character to be like Dave from “Alvin and the Chipmunks” and Patton delivered the goods and then some. I love Rich Fulcher as the battery guy/ dad’s friend. Rich is amazing. I love Laura Silverman as the little girl. in fact, I love all the voices except for Toro and Moro themselves. I also love the character designs and I love the painted backgrounds by Steven Chunn. I love the look overall. It feels nice. But I dropped the ball where it counts the most. The story and the comedy.
